It is a shame that Carl Manchover never wrote a book on the history of computer graphics. His papers at CBI would be of use to you. The topic of ³Computer Graphics² is VERY big, and goes back to the first computers using Williams/Kilburn tubes. By ³Computer Generated Imagery² do you mean synthetic images created for display on a raster-scanned monitor? On 5/11/12 7:23 AM, "Marguerite B Avery" <mavery@MIT.EDU> wrote:
Hi,
Peter Meyers kindly pointed out that CGI could be any number of things, so I will clarify: I¹m looking for Computer Graphics / Computer Generated Imagery. Specifically, I¹m hoping to find some people who know this history from its inception; or some very interested fans who might be willing to read portions of a manuscript on the subject.
